Unita had the privilege to deliver the 104 year old local favourite, Porters Plainland Hotel’s biggest refurbishment/expansion to date. With the demolition of the disused bottle shop and surrounding areas, the construction of a new hotel addition included 3 function rooms each with operable walls, a gaming area and bar, office space, keg room and cold room, and amenities. Additionally, a new motel has been added, with beautiful suites and a managers quarters finished to the highest of quality. Unita also undertook a large-scale civil project alongside this hotel fitout including earthworks, a carpark and road resurfacing.

They are fronted by three high-backed purple stools with black seats. The machines are partially separated from the viewer's area by a low partition featuring a modern, dark metal screen with an abstract laser-cut pattern that is illuminated with bright blue LED backlighting. The ceiling is made of exposed dark wooden slats, and the floor is covered in a dark, patterned carpet.
